<p>While I have no problem with the principle of display the last geometry of the way in the browse view like this it needs to be done properly, which basically means solving the "history api" problem properly.</p>
<p>No way are we going to be adding more back door history hacks like this - we already did that once with amf_controller and Potlatch 1 and we're not going to repeat it.</p>
<p>In addition we shouldn't be adding new API calls to the ruby code anyway - the goal is to move the API to cgimap so implementing this as ruby only is not going to work.</p>
